Formula X Polish | THRILLING

 

Hi loves!! I have a quick post today. I didn't want to neglect the blog this week. This time of year is super busy for me but I still want to commit to my blog. I don't have a lot of subscribers but I really enjoy sharing my nails and nail art via a blog. Yes Instagram is instant but sometimes I just feel like posting.

A few weeks ago I went to Sephora just to get the Formula X polish remover in the huge jar and picked up a few polishes. Well $138 dollars later I have 6 polishes and the remover jar!

Thrilling stood out to me because of its nudish pink shade. I'm not sure why I keep gravitating to nudes but I just love them. Here I'm wearing two coats and I used a cheap white polish for the accent nails.

These polishes are super opaque. Honestly one coat is great especially for designs and having that one coat as a base.

If you haven't already check out the pretty polishes from Formula X!

 

KB Shimmer | STARK RAVEN MAD

 

I received some nail mail last week from KB Shimmer which I mentioned in a previous post. I also received STARK RAVEN MAD by KB Shimmer and it's a beauty!

Nail Foils

 

As you can see I had to do a major chop on my nails. I had two breaks on my left hand and one on my right. I had patched all three up but somehow my patch had failed me on my right which is my hand I like to photograph.

Designs for Short Natural Nails

 

 

Here is a picture of a design I did last week. I used My Vampire is Buff by OPI as a base and acrylic paint for the designs . Also I used some gold chains I picked up from Michaels craft store.

 

SinfulColors polish|Boogie Nights

 

Today I have another "Untried". I've had this polish in my stash for sometime. I swatched it of course when I first bought it but never wore it.

Spring Nails

 

Somehow this manicure got lost. I posted on Instagram but forgot to do a post on it.

Zoya Nail polish in Farah

 

I'm playing catch up with my posts. It's been a hectic few weeks for me. I try and schedule post but sometimes I can only get one post up. But I'm improving. I really enjoy posting my nails and watching my growth.

Pastel Peach/Orange spring nails

 

I've been really into my pastel polishes lately. Pastel colors just say SPRING to me. Also I love a great peach colored polish.

Purple Dottie manicure

 

Happy Monday! It's snowing here in Maryland. I figured it was a good day to catch up on some post. I'm still trying to tweak my eating plan. It's a process in deed! Some days are good some are a struggle. I actually did some juicing last week and lost a few pounds! Yay! Ok on to the manicure.

FINGRS NAIL WRAPS

 

I feel like I haven't had a post in a while. I've been back on my healthy lifestyle kick and I've been really trying to focus on that. Planning meals is not really hard work but making the effort to eat what you've planned is where it gets tricky! Anywho on to this spring Mani!

Nail Vinyls

 

Let me start by saying that I'm not being paid to review this product. I'm not endorsed by this company and I've always purchased these products with my own money. Now that's out the way....on to my review!

Femme Fatale | Burning Blossom

Earlier in the week I did a post on some nail mail I received from Color4Nails. I decided to do an individual swatch of this color by Femme Fatale in the color Burning Blossom.

NCLA Nail Wraps

Happy Saturday! This is a quick post. I wanted to share my mani for the weekend. I ordered some nail wraps from www.shopncla.com this week.

Color club | Leopard and Stripes

I'm a huge animal print lover! I'm not big on the clothes(for myself), but I like all animal print. From snake skin, leopard and zebra print. I love the shoes, hand bags, wallets etc.

China Glaze | Midnight Mission & Bells Will Be Blinging

 

It's a snow day for me today and I decided to get caught up on some post. I refuse to eat up everything today so why not be productive!

I did this mani last night out of wanting to use some more "untried" polishes. I had swatched Bells Will Be Blinging the night before over black and couldn't wait to have it as a mani. I wasn't sure of what other polish I wanted to add to the mani but knew I wanted to bring out the blue glitter in Bells Will Be Blinging. I had also never used Midnight Mission by China Glaze as well and thought it would be perfect!

Now as much as I love green, I love blue nail polish just as much! There's something about blue against my complexion that I love. I think my undertones really compliment blue.

For the Bells Will Be Blinging design I had planned to use tape for this but the polish is so rich and thick that I was able to free hand my tape design. Also Midnight Mission was very opaque with one coat which I thought was great because to me some China Glaze polish need at least 2-3 coats for opaqueness.

I will definitely be using more untried polishes!

Have you tried either of these polishes? If so how'd you like them? If not definitely give them a go!
